2006/07 Sub-Zero/Wolf Kitchen Design Contest

2004/ 05 First place national winner: Michael Neumann, Architect, Jairo Camelo and Daniel Gillen

Michael Neumann Architecture LLC New York, NY

"To create a unified appearance, appliance detailing inspired the millwork

design: the stainless counter edge profile matches the adjacent 48" Wolf

range. Lights in the fully concealed 54" Wolf range hood were also mount-

ed in the adjoining stainless soffit for consistency of style. The Sub-Zero

601 refrigerators and freezer with bottom grilles were chosen to maintain

a seamless visual transition with the stainless cabinets above. Cabinet

pulls were chosen to harmonize with the minimalist look of the Sub-Zero

and Wolf appliance handles."

2004/ 05 Second place national winner: Elaine Cecconi

Cecconi Simone Inc. Toronto, Ontario, Canada

"The island is the focal point of the kitchen and

has the Wolf dual fuel range and exhaust liner

suspended from the ceiling above. This is the

heart of the kitchen where everyone gathers.

The client loves the look of the Wolf range with

its commercial cooking aesthetic, but wanted

the other appliances to 'disappear'. The 700

Series refrigerator and freezer and wine storage

achieve this and are clad in Corian. The

microwave sits below the plasma TV and is flush

mount and frameless."

2004/ 05 Third place national winner: David Jameson

David Jameson Architect Alexandria, VA

"The concept for the house is that it is a glass

pavilion flanked on the north and south by two

stone wings. Inside the glass pavilion, a

habitable wooden object is inserted to define a

space for the kitchen. The distilled solid-quality

of the kitchen is a counterpoint to the porous

glass walls that wrap and protect it from nature.

Four 700 Series units are discreetly placed in

pragmatic areas and clad in vertical grain fir to

remain anonymous. A Wolf 36" oven, 36" gas

cooktop and microwave act as minimalist

sculpture inserted into the material fabric."

Best use of Integrated refrigeration outside the kitchen: Scott Grandis, CKD and Carmen Schultz

Bella Cucina, Inc. Sylvan Lake, MI

"One request the client had for this dining room, was that they did not

want to see any exposed appliances. They requested base refrigeration,

two warming drawers as well as a sink with a disposer. Being that con-

cealed appliances were a must, Sub-Zero was the best choice. The focal

point of the built-in cabinetry is the arched glass upper cabinets and the

Bombay base cabinet, which beautifully houses two Wolf warming drawers.

To make this section balanced, we placed a tall cabinet both to the left

and right of this unit. The left bottom cabinet houses a 700BR refrigerator,

while the cabinet to the right houses a sink behind bi-fold doors."

Best use of Wine Storage in a unique location: Michael David Bright

Bright Woodworks, Inc. St. Petersburg, FL

"The overall house design makes this room a feature because of its

inside/outside orientation. The homeowners wanted the casual look of

furniture rather than cabinets. The Sub-Zero appliances allowed for the

true integrated look. The wine storage unit was recessed into a wall with

only a 6" projection, giving a very unique look and feel. The ice maker

false front was divided into a drawer face and door to match the adjacent

cabinet faces, giving the illusion of a piece of antique furniture. Function-

ally and esthetically the space works great."

National Student Winner: Jamie Miller

Alexandria Technical College Alexandria, MN

Jamie Miller's winning kitchen design was built

and incorporated into the Sub-Zero/Wolf exhibit at

the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Chicago,

April 21–23, 2006.

"The island is an important part of the design because it is

where the client will entertain his guests. A pro-style range,

refrigerator drawers and storage were incorporated in the island

so the client has everything at his fingertips. There is a 48"

side-by-side refrigerator, warming drawer, microwave and double

ovens in the kitchen. Refrigerator/freezer drawers and the

dishwasher are hidden by panels of cabinetry. Everything used

in this kitchen was selected based on ease of use, as well as

aesthetics to contribute to the overall design of the kitchen."

13

International Winner—Middle East / Pacific Rim: Cara Marie S. Marcelo

Focus Global, Inc. Mandaluyong City, Philippines

"Sub-Zero inspired vents on the top of the window ties in perfectly with

their stainless freezer and glass door refrigerator. Having Wolf cooking

appliances for their restaurant kitchens, there was no question that the

48" Wolf professional range and the microwave and warming drawer com-

bination would be their cooking equipment of choice. By incorporating a

Sub-Zero 424 wine storage in the center island, the homeowners dream

comes full circle, as this allows them to wine and dine their guests and

encourage family interaction in a space that is perfect for their lifestyle."

International Winner— Europe: Enrico Longoni, Stefano Gorla and Yoko Ono

Eurostyling SRL Milano, Italy

"The kitchen has three different blocks which are separated by the aspect

and by materials. The first block along the wall with steel structures and a

customized white corian top includes a wine storage 424G/S and a

700BCI refrigerator/freezer. The second block is an island in the middle of

the kitchen; it is the cooking area. The third block is characterized by

three Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances: 650/S refrigerator/freezer, built-in

oven and warming drawer. The whole structure is inside a corner niche

made on measure to obtain lightness and transparency."
